HK has been around for years and knows both sides of the story. There were quite a few black Confederate soldiers and most fought in integrated regiments, unlike northerner black troops who were segregated. I saw a video last week of a young black fellow who refused to condemn the flag.His great grandfather fought for the Confederacy and his family received a Confederate pension after the war. Most bitterness between blacks and whites in the south was a result of reconstruction efforts by *Republicans* using racial divide and conquer tactics to politically subjugate white southerners and Democrats. The Jim Crow south was the result of the backlash. But you should know this , coming from SC. Unfortunately, the victors in a war write the history and is always written to justify their victory.

Watch this crap, I have never seen the like. And this is no joke - this guy actually comes to the Statehouse in South Carolina DEFENDING the Rebel Flag. Truth is stranger than fiction.
